And, in any case, surely
they sell Oyster cards at the DLR ticket windows at Lewisham?

Afraid not, at least the last time I visited (easter or something). The
ticket offices at Lewisham and Greenwich stations are managed by
Southeastern and at least at that time they did not sell Oyster cards.
Most DLR stations have no ticket offices, only ticket machines.

Lewisham ticket office (but not Greenwich) has very recently started
selling Oyster tickets and top-ups, along with a ticket machine (that
only accepts cards as payment). Even though this hasn't been
well-pulicised, the woman should have remembered the local newsagents':
there are two able to sell Oyster tickets within 3-5 minutes walk.
